Open Doors of Opportunity

For the past two months we have been preaching every Saturday in the large village called Moree. On Sunday we had a man who heard us preach in Moree come to visit our services. He promised he would be coming back to visit our church. This is encouraging to see God at work! We also had two college girls who recently moved to Cape Coast visit our services for the second Sunday in a row. Pray that God would continue to work in the hearts of those to whom we have preached the Gospel.

This past Saturday we also preached at the Cape Coast School for the Deaf. The Jehovah's Witnesses have been trying to lead the deaf into their false doctrines. However, most of the deaf refuse to listen to the JW's because of God's blessing upon our labors at the Deaf school. I have been preaching at this deaf school for two years now. This last December when we had our camp meeting at the deaf school, we had 30 deaf students profess Jesus Christ as Saviour. Until our campmeeting we did not have any professions of faith at the school. It takes time for the deaf to come to a clear understanding of the Gospel. Now, with many of them saved and grounded in the Gospel they will not listen to false gospels. In the next few weeks we have an opportunity to bring the JSS3 students to our church on Sundays.

This weekend I will have the opportunity to preach at a deaf woman's funeral. I did not know this woman, but some of our deaf church members knew her. There will be many deaf people coming from different regions of Ghana to the funeral. Pray for this wonderous opportunity to share the Gospel with the deaf in Ghana.
